A boxer brief, as the name implies, is a mix between a boxer and a brief. A boxer is a loose fitting underwear with legs, while a brief is a basic and snug fitting underwear that does not have the legs covered. The mix brings in two very popular traits of the two basic styles: leg coverage and a snug fit. The boxer brief fits snuggly onto the skin and provides support for a man in the most needed places, including in the legs.

A boxer brief is a perfect underwear for someone who participates in multiple activities throughout the day. Some guys may wear a loose fitting boxer to work under their suit, then change into a more supportive jock or brief for their evening workout, but the boxer brief is a possible solution to avoid an extra wardrobe change in your day.
